The American Lung Association (ALA) has a tax deduction opportunity for people with vehicles they no longer need. The association's ongoing Vehicle Donation Program allows people to donate old vehicles (including cars, trucks, vans, motorcycles, motor homes and boats) and then earn tax deductions. All proceeds from the program benefit people living with lung disease. The vehicle donation process requires one simple step - a phone call. Those wishing to donate their vehicles just call the Vehicle Donation hotline. The ALA then has the vehicle towed within a few days. Tax deductions are based on a fair market value range for the vehicle. To donate, please call the Vehicle Donation Hotline at 1-800-LUNG-USA ext. 3 or visit www.donateyourcar.com. Some restrictions apply for older vehicles. For more information on lung disease call the American Lung Association at 1-800-LUNG-USA, or visit: www.lunginfo.org.
